Over the last decade or so we’ve seen a lot of changes in our world, and more specifically, in the United States. It’s hard to keep track of and it’s difficult to try and understand everything.

Laws get passed, wars start, analysts argue, and seemingly everyone is upset. But at the end of the day there’s one important question that isn’t answered, or asked, nearly enough: What’s changed and how will it influence my life?

This fall, our events will look to answer those questions and any other question you may have about civil or civic rights, laws, acts, and policies.

We’re going to bring in the people that know those laws the best and allow you to ask them questions. We’re going to have your peers help you understand the issues that really matter; the ones that affect you on a personal level and on a daily basis. We’re going to collaborate with groups from all across campus who have the same drive to educate their peers as we do.

And that, ultimately, is our goal: Education. So stay tuned throughout the summer as we continue to put these programs together and we look forward to seeing you in the fall.

If you want to help us we encourage you to email, tweet, or call us any time.
